This is a review for the Epson DS-770 II Color Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review. The first thing I noticed (and loved) about the scanner is the size. I have a very small desk area in my home and the scanner is small enough I could put it on my little desk and not have to make a special space for it. Setup was very easy by just following the directions. It took a while for the software/driver installation but I think that's because I have satellite internet and it can be slow.
I am self employed and since my printer stopped working a few months ago I've been saving all of my receipts, documents, etc. as backups to my spreadsheets and my usually roomy filing cabinet was getting pretty full. After setup I scanned all of my business papers. The scanner worked perfectly. The papers feed smoothly and quickly and since the first day I've scanned daily. I've done single and multiple sheets and haven't had any jams or problems.
It does have to be connected to my laptop since it isn't wifi or bluetooth compatible which would be nice but for my needs it's ok that isn't. I highly recommend this scanner!
This is a review for the Epson DS-770 II Color Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review. Today I really got to get down to the basic functions. I scanned paperwork to go into files and color pictures to go with some of those files. Not to praise the machine so much but I have to praise the outcomes. everything I scanned looked perfect. Crisp and clear. The ease of use was great and the speed at which it scanned was spot on. I have to recommend this scanner to everyone I know. Once I finish with scanning all my old documents and old pictures this beautiful machine will be used by the scouts for boy scouts and cubbies here in Norfolk. i Know they are going to love this unit as much as I do.
This is a review for the Epson DS-770 II Color Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review I spent a few weeks using the Epson DS-770 and it’s an impressive scanner with a small footprint to save desk space. It can scan 2 sides pages at 200 DPI in B&W with super fast speeds. You can also increase the DPI for better resolution in exchange for a little slower performance.
The included software installs rather easily on Windows 10 and comes with all the basics needed to get started. Although I didn’t utilize it yet, the ability to scan to cloud is one all scanners should have these days. Overall, this scanner would make a fine addition to a small/home office.
his is a review for the Epson DS-770 II Color Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review. This scanner was easy to set up using the included directions. Took less than 5 minutes to get up & running! It did take a little while to download the software but I assume that was due to my internet speed. To use the scanner you simply put in document or documents into feeder & hit the start button. It scans at super fast speed & immediately loads onto computer in pdf format. This machine would be VERY handy in an office setting! Overall I'd say good investment.
This is a review for the Epson DS-770 II Color Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review. The scanner arrived in perfect shape despite the box being extremely battered in transit. The Styrofoam took most of the damage and little pieces went everywhere. Unpacking the scanner was very straightforward. It comes with a power cord, adapter, and USB cable. The “Start Here” guide was very basic with not a lot of words or detailed pictures. The first step was to remove all packing materials and tape. Next, plug the cord into the adapter and turn the machine on. Then you are supposed to install the software. I visited the link provided for my scanner and it kept taking me to “page not found”, so I eventually did a basic search of the model number and found the drivers for my scanner. I followed the on-screen prompts which led me to plugging the USB port into the computer and following the rest of the setup automatically. The whole machine setup was very straightforward and easy.
After the software is installed, the scanner is ready to use. Although at this point, I had to go back to the support page and download the user manual because the display is not labeled, it’s just buttons with characters. The scanner has an output tray and extension which fold out very easily but also fold back in to make the scanner much more compact. There is also a paper guide so you can choose the width of the material that you’re scanning. Basically, at this point, you can load in your media and start scanning. It can handle multiple pages at once and it scans very fast. I was not happy with the standard DPI default, so I found the Epson Scan 2 App and was able to change the settings from there. You can choose single/double sided, image type (color, grayscale, black & white), the resolution, the format, file name, and what folder the documents go into. There are a ton of advanced settings as well, including adjusting the brightness, contrast, gamma, and more. I also like that you can do a preview scan and see what adjustments need to be made before making it a document. I also like that it brings up the folder that has the document in it automatically, so you aren’t searching for your freshly scanned files.
I think the scanner does a good job at scanning most things. For basic office documents, this scanner is very nice. There are a lot of things this scanner says you shouldn’t scan though, like photos, artwork, or anything wrinkled. Things are easily jammed if they are even slightly wrinkled, but it is very easy to take them back out by opening up the front cover and just removing them.
The quality of the scan improves with the resolution and the quality on general documents is crisp and clear. The quality on colored documents is not as crisp or as nice quality as the originals, but very nice quality for general office documents.
All in all, this is a nice scanner for basic office documents! It wasn’t overly difficult to set up, it’s a good size, it’s fast, and it works well!
This is a review for the Epson DS-770 II Color Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge todo a beta test and review. The scanner was easy to setup once I determined that it does not have WiFi even though the documentation is not clear on this point, since the documentation is for multiple models of the scanner. The scanner has simple buttons on the front to use for scanning as well as great software that you download from Epson.com. The scanner has the ability to scan up to 1200 DPI which is great when scanning old pictures. It enhanced the quality of the photos greatly. When using the software you can even scan credit cards or ID cards by turning by selecting Plastic Cards as the paper type. You can even scan both sides of the cards at the same time and have the software stitch them together on a single piece of paper. The scanner has a large document feeder that can hold unto 100 sheets of paper which is great when scanning a lot of documents at one time.
The only downside of this scanner is that it is not WiFi or network enabled, you must connect it to a computer. It also lacks the ability to use a mobile device to scan to. It also does not have a control panel on the scanner to manage the scanner settings. The front panel has 5 buttons and a small section with 3 indicator lights is you encounter a problem. Since it lacks a control panel you do not really have much information if a problem occurs.
If you are looking for a scanner that is fast and up to 1200 DPI I would highly recommend this scanner for a home/home office setting where you only have one computer that will need to use it.
This is a review for the Epson DS-770 II Color Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.
Let me start off by saying that this is a great scanner for quickly scanning a lot of documents. My main use was going through boxes of family photos to convert to digital. At first I was expecting it to take atleast 10 minutes to scan 4 or 5 photos at 600dpi but it was much much quicker than that. Auto feeding worked flawlessly except for one issue. But removing the jam was very easy and my document was not bent or anything. The auto document size detection also worked 90 percent of the time, even on extremely small photos and Polaroids.
My main issues don’t really lie with the product itself though. Setup was kind of a pain, especially with installing drivers. When it came time to connect the scanner to the computer via cable, the instillation program would not want to detect that the scanner was connected. It took me three times to download the installer for it to work. On another note, I do wish that the scanning program would give an estimate on how much time was remaining until the batch scan was done. Other than that, I would say that this product is very much worth the cost and can be applicable in many situations.

I highly recommend the scanner. It took me less than 20 mins to set it up. I've so far tried scanning letter and A4 (both colored and black&white) and it works like amazing. I used Document Capture Pro App on my Windows laptop to scan double-sided documents and it was so easy and smooth. Really love the feature to be able to edit/rotate on the app. If you are looking for a scanner, look no further.
